Macy Movers is a family business with Mark Macy as the third-generation owner. Macy Movers opened for business in 1915 by Art Macy, who started doing local moves in Oakland, CA. As the company grew, Art bought two more trucks with his three sons, Charles, Art Jr., and Jack, helping him.
After serving in the Korean War as a decorated sergeant, Jack Macy took over the company in the 1950's. He eventually teamed up with Atlas Van Lines in 1971 to handle interstate moves and, eventually, international moves. In 2008, Jack's son, Mark Macy, became president of the company, which now employs over 25 staff.
Being in the moving business for over 100 years, Macy Movers has supported local communities through various activities. Art was heavily involved with local semi-professional baseball teams, sponsoring and even coaching for them. Mark recently entered the company's 1937 Chevrolet moving van in The 2016 Arroyo Car Show to raise funds for the school's athletic booster club.
